Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The effects of psychosocial support on the disease process have been studied with many different groups and diseases, and even the psychosocial support needed by the family of the child with a chronic disease has been the subject of research, but studies focusing directly on the needs of the child have been very limited. Although it is seen in the existing literature that studies such as art and play therapy or educational programs have been carried out to improve the attitudes of pediatric oncology patients towards their own diseases, no study has been found that investigated the effects of social/social support in pediatric oncology patients. In order to contribute to this limitation in the literature, this study aimed to examine the effects of community-provided psychosocial support videos on the attitudes and symptoms of pediatric oncology patients.
